REALITY TV CIRCUS

With the news that Criss Angel just bought Hef’s former No. 1 Holly Madison a ring and were spotted this week cavorting around town together, it stops and makes you wonder why Hef’s Christmas Card this year has him and the Shannon twins (above photo) on it. Or maybe it doesn’t.

What that tells me is the Hef and Holly are officially over and that it will only be a matter of time before Holly is asked to leave the Playboy Mansion for good. Her time, based on this card, may in fact be coming to an end within months, if not weeks.

It hasn’t always been this way for the Alaska native. Even though she faced stiff competition to become the number one woman in Hef’s life (Other Playmates reportedly said she studied Hef before making her move) she persevered in a way no other Alaskan woman has in politics since Sarah Palin. LOL

But the Shannon Twins, who will also reportedly be named Playmates in the coming months, have stepped to the forefront of the discussion about who Holly’s replacement will be. I’m not convinced they are, anyway, since Hef has also been spotted with another model, Crystal (below photo in middle), who looks older than the 22 years she states on her MySpace profile. And Hef seems to like Crystal lots too and the two might be a better fit!

So in Playboy Land, everything is up in the air right now, including the future of the Playboy empire Hef has worked so hard to build. Hef Isn’t getting any younger either, at the age of 82. The other thing is, it’s awfully strange to see Hef out with twins. I’ll bet the twins love sitting in his bed watching old movies, when they aren’t cheating on him behind his back in the Grotto. LOL
